How to open contacts or phone app on Android from CTRL

[mkoller]

As I got this question recently, I'd like to share the findings I have made:

To open the phone app, use:

Code: Select all

openUrl("tel:");

To open the phone app with a specific number defined:

Code: Select all

openUrl("tel:123456");

To open the contacts app:

Code: Select all

openUrl("content://com.android.contacts/contacts/");

I just tested this on Android.
If anybody has an idea how to do the same on iOS, please share.

iOS dont provide a URL Scheme to Open Contacts app
